The White House Press that could sure im spice that hes a parent today he announced hes resigning from the post after just six months on the job. It decision came right off that Anthony Scaramucci was named thing you Communications Director. Mister spicer said he wanted to give patina fresh slate bobbys changes come after a sensitive time for the white house. Has their own discreetly with the rupture investigations the b. B. C. s chief correspondent gavin hewitt reports from washington. A day of dramatic changes at the white house. Phone spy so the white House Press Secretary on one of the most recognizable faces of the trump administration. Abruptly resigned. Spice it was a controversial figure. Early on he was forced to defend the crowd size at Donald Trumps inauguration. Denying more people turned out for barack obama. This was the largest audience to ever witnessed an inauguration period. Both in person and around the globe. The pictures suggested otherwise. And then there were his remarks about chemical weapons his references to hitler caused outrage we used chemical weapons in world war two. You know you had a. Someone is despicable as hitler. Who didnt even seem to the . To the. To using chemical weapons. His performances were marked on late night comedy shows. I mean it in the sense. Im so glad. Funes points about himself on the clue scrutiny from donald trump who prize is good on camera performances. The president began looking for a strong defender particularly as he faces a growing investigation into whether there was collusion. Between the Trump Campaign and russia during last years election. What prompted spices resignation was the appointment of this man Anthony Scaramucci as White House Communications director . The wall street financier gave his opening page i love the president in a very very loyal to the president. Then he was reminded that back in twenty fifteen he had called donald trump a hack an inherited money. Mister president youre listening i personally apologize for the fiftieth time for saying that. But heres the wonderful thing about the news media that was three minutes of my life hes never forgotten it and youve never forgotten it. But you know i hope that someday mister president youll forget it lets go to our next question. The new Communications Director is certainly slick but heres the problem you can stand at the podium and defend white house policy. But President Trump has a habit of changing the message with just a tweet. Todays shakeup reveals donald trump under pressure seeking a communicator who will fight for his presidency. Gavin hewitt bbc news washington. And a brief time ago i spoke with Alexi Simmons inga White House Correspondent for real quick politics. Good to have you with us alexis how much of a surprise blows shown spices resignation. Well you know i think of those of us who were in the white house. Almost every day were not that surprised bought one of the reasons that we werent surprised has to do with what you are describing in the set up to this matter is that. The president has had a rocky communications and i kind of a. Lack of confidence in sean spicer from the very beginning. But in this particular case we also knew that he was Close Friends with Anthony Scaramucci had known him for a long period time hes friendly scaramucci is with. Donald trumps children. And the he had been seen in the white house and the president been looking for an opportunity to give him a job. For quite some time so we had seen. Some of the makings of the search for the replacement and lots and lots of run up to why the president was so frustrated with hiS Communications. Alexis you were in the Briefing Room when. Mr scaramucci spoke earlier when you First Impressions of him. Well he is someone that. We know from American Television we know that he has been a trump defender on television and a surrogate for the campaign before. So hes a familiar figure he was deathly familiar to a lot of the television reporters who were in the front row. Hes also has a completely different just position that the president s other communicators in the white house in that he. Has a kind of. Fast talking new york centered way of speaking that is in some ways reminiscent of donald trump. Boastful while hes talking about being humble. Very clearly trying to. Argue that he is the fiercest a founder of the president which is exactly what President Trump wants to hear. And very thin maybe on what comes next exactly what kind of information or procedures are staffing. That were yet to see and those were the First Impressions i think i had. And on the shalom spice that the relationship between the White House Press school and the white house has been had been tense. Up how do you think things might change now. Well that i think remains to be seen or one thing i think we should mention is that the president did not come out and make one of the more historic. Kinds of announcements that weve seen president s do before that is naming Sarah Huckabee sanders as his press secretary thats the third woman. In the United States have been named a white House Press Secretary and. It was a little odd the protocol usually a president uses the weight of his office and his voice to tell the world of the american people. This person speaks for me and so one of the things we havent seen yet is what role Sarah Huckabee sanders is the new press secretary replacing sean spicer. Will have she clearly reports to Anthony Scaramucci who said he reports to the president and not the white house chief of staff. So some of the protocol and also some of the. Organizational chart and who reports to whom who gets to you know argue for transparency or the president S Communications remember. The Communications Director of the white house is not the president s daily spokesperson. It presents a Communications Director is supposed to be thinking long term how to help the president navigate. And get his message out for the big picture looking months ahead not necessarily in the news cycle of the moment. Alexis thanks very much for joining us. And the perspective of someone whos worked in the white house i think a brief time to go with bbc political analyst ron christie. Who was in the administration of george w. Bush . Well the white house is trying to reset its message what he thinks actually going on. Good evening regina i think the white house is really trying to find their footin. All the talk about investigations with russia and the president s inability to work with congress to get a healthcare bill through. I think theres a certain level of frustration either the president felt and he felt he needed to get someone whos close to him. Someone who hear you but he felt had his back and so he chose an individual whos not known for hiS Communications prowess. But known for being a loyal ally of president truman and as someone who has worked in the white house how effective do you think hell be given that he is. A political looks at some later you say with very little experience of communications. Let me put it to you this way if i were donald trump the builder i wouldnt hire a Communications Professional to build my skyscrapers. So in that realm i dont know why putting someone who has no experience as a communications expert. As the White House Communications director is a recipe for success its a very difficult job i can tell you i work for the Communications Director on an almost daily basis when i was in the white house. Theyre in charge of the press operation theyre in charge of meeting Regional Media here in the United States. There the outlet really if you will for all the press inquiry is impressed inputs. And not having relations with reporters not having relations with people around town who are communications experts. I think this is a very difficult role for this gentleman to succeed and and i think it was a mistake that the president hired hi. Well if you think this says about the other relationships in the white house the relationship the president has with his chief of staff for example. What this shows is that mr scaramucci is very close to the president s children . And so i expect the refs that you see between. Ivanka his daughter and of course your kushner his son in law with the more traditional stylish but people like rates previous the chief of staff. Fire the chief of staff this evening i would be saying they came for spicer first theyre going to be coming from the next. And the note if you look from your last segment that mr skir he said hes not gonna report to the white house chief of staff which all staff in the white house do. But directly to the president said that isnt clear undermining the role of the chief of staff. And i wouldnt be surprised virginius if mister. R to the president. And i think we circumvent the chief of staff from your experience and knowledge. Ive never seen it ive never seen in the Obama Administration we certainly didnt have that the bush administration. One thing that the president does to inoculate himself from the running of the white house is to delegate all responsibility to the white house chief of staff. Thats not just the the staff who work their regina but its also the cabinet secretarie. Who are often used as a buffer the white house chief of staff that is between the president and those who might have different opinions . Having someone go straight into the oval Office Straight to the president without having a boss or intermediary. Is not only unprecedented but i think its unwise the president needs that layer and that barrier from staff and now President Trump. Has someone who directly reports to him who does not have to do in iraq with the other staff and i think its a bad combination and rot frankly with peril. Well christy good to have you with us. Lets take a look at some of the days all the needs the United States has confirmed it will find its citizens from traveling to north korea. In the wake of the death of an american student who was imprisoned by pyongyang during the tourists visit. Once in force americans he wont go to north korea need special permission. The United States says its withheld the remaining fifty Million Dollars in military payments to pakistan. Secretary of defense jim matheos says islamabad was not taking sufficient actions against the haqqani network. Trumpet ministration is looking at hardening if approach toward pakistan to crack down on militants launching strikes in neighboring afghanistan.
